en.Wedoany.com Reported - The 2026 Green Gas Mobility Summit, organized by Gasnam, was recently held, with the core agenda focusing on the role of biomethane in decarbonizing road transport. The summit pointed out that although Spain's biomethane usage chain (including refueling stations, vehicles, and operators) is ready and operational, domestic production has not advanced at the necessary pace due to excessively slow administrative approval processes.

Currently, natural gas refueling stations in Spain can already supply biomethane, and gas-powered vehicles can refuel and reduce emissions without any technical changes. Heavy-duty commercial vehicles using compressed natural gas (CNG) and liquefied natural gas (LNG) already on the market are also ready to achieve zero-emission transport using biomethane.

The event clearly demonstrated that bio-liquefied natural gas (BioLNG) has become an immediate and economically viable solution for long-distance transport, with a competitive total cost of ownership that directly helps decarbonize fleets. An increasing number of leading logistics operators are choosing BioLNG as an immediate decarbonization pathway, generating real and growing demand.

In addition to private demand, public procurement is also a key lever for decarbonizing passenger transport and municipal services, with the crucial factor being the recognition of the role of renewable gases in tenders.

To ensure demand is met, domestic production must grow rapidly. Producers and operators are calling for enhanced cooperation between administrative bodies and the industry to accelerate factory approvals and eliminate regulatory uncertainty. Furthermore, progress is needed in transposing the EU Renewable Energy Directive, which will mandate the introduction of increasingly higher quotas for advanced biofuels. The industry emphasizes that if production growth cannot keep pace with demand, the mandatory consumption of advanced fuels will be difficult to implement.

Therefore, the main challenge currently lies not in the use of biomethane, but in its supply. Accelerating the administrative approval process for factories to align production growth with market demand has become an urgent priority.
